"Dark Mean City" takes place in a land where, in the past, pirates hid treasures and left behind the spark of a dreadful curse. 300 years later, in modern times, this incredible tale unfolds.

In search of forgotten fortunes, many explorers from Wreckfog City have ventured up the mountains and delved into abandoned caves and mines. Yet this vast 1,225 km² territory is far too grand to conquer in a single day. Venture boldly into this living, perilous world!

To the north, the settlement of Ollops City lies abandoned following a plague widely believed to be an ancient pirate curse. In this forsaken place, people exhibit terrifying behavior: they are aggressive, cannibalistic, immune to pain, drawn to darkness, and wander aimlessly across the land — known and feared as the "Badawakes".

STORY:

This adventure bridges the centuries from 1723 to 2023 across a massive landmass known as Muster Island, whose capital is Wreckfog City. The abandoned settlement to the north is Ollops City — an acronym for Old Land Of Pirates.

Pirates brought a rare ancestral botanical plant from the Indian subcontinent, which they fed to their captives to keep them awake for days on end, forcing them to plunder and excavate mines without rest under constant pursuit.

Stored alongside other compounds inside a pirate chest left behind in a hazardous cavern, this plant mutated over 300 years. Fueled by volcanic lava flows, toxic sulfur fumes, and later the electromagnetic discharges of an abandoned geothermal plant, the contents transformed into a lethal toxin.

In 1980, an earthquake tore open a fissure in the cavern, allowing the contaminated water to seep into the streams of Ollops City. Deprived of sleep and consumed by madness, local residents and explorers were transformed into the dreadful Badawakes.

In 2023, our protagonists Oliver and Katie find themselves locked in a fight for survival: uncover treasures, battle hordes of Badawakes, fend off ruthless factions like the Marauding Punks and Dead Cheaters, and seek a cure alongside Dr. Philip.

Rising at the island's core stands the Grand Central Mountain, shrouded in deep mystery. It is home to the sorceress Bridget Cailleach, where ancestral secrets may hold the key to uncovering an unconventional antidote against the toxin.
